Sweeps are over people and this weekend really shows the strain of TV when nobody is watching. Here’s the best of some mighty slim pickings.
Friday
Ice Wars 2006: USA VS. The World
Once again, the rest of the world is pitted against us. Even in ice skating, we stand alone. Couldn’t they at least have given us the UK and Australia? You know, a Coalition of the Skating? Tune in to see if Brian Boitano can save the day again.
1 Vs. 100
This week features the cast of Las Vegas. Now is your chance to prove you’re smarter than Nikki Cox.
Saturday
The Christmas Card
A soldier visits a family because he got an anonymous Christmas card from them on the front line – kind of creepy if you ask me. Also, since this is the Hallmark channel, I’ve got to wonder if this isn’t an infomercial.
Sunday
Librarian Two: Return to Kind Solomon’s Mine
Noah Wyle reprises his role as a geekier version of Indiana Jones. Guess where he’s going this time? Oh, and it’s directed by Commander Riker. Good to see Frakes getting work . . . I guess.
This Weekend’s Pick N’ Flick
Pearl Harbor
People criticize this movie (probably because the romance is so incredibly lame) but they just don’t know how to watch it. Skip the first 45 minutes and the last 45 minutes. When you see Alec Baldwin, it’s time to go for a snack. If you follow these tips, you can have a pretty pleasant viewing experience. Tivo really helps this one out.
